Loesje (a dutch girls name) is a group of people active all around the world and at the same time, Loesje is a character, through whom those people want to inspire others.

The texts published on posters reflect often the current world issues and the concerns and engagement of the Loesje member's world wide. These texts have as aim to let the reader think, act and react on the topic the texts are referring to. Loesje tries to do this in a positive way and often avoids being moralistic and dogmatic. Some texts have a serious message and other texts are simply to make you laugh. Humor and creativity are always important in all work Loesje does.

You can follow Loesje on social media as well. If you want to get involved you can write to her as well.
